I did the recursive delete and ignore all. reinstalled the plex app and I am up and running

I opted for yes and got the pop up cannot remove directory "mnt/user/appda~plaexapp.system"directory not empty (39) I got it for a couple files and selected "ignore all" Not sure if that will cause problems

Goring the f8 option I deleted the plex media server file it ran and I got a red pop up box that says "Directory /"mnt/user/appda~x-Media-Server" not empty. Delete recursively? Options are: Yes, No, All, Abort what should I do?

If I understand correctly step one is to delete. I used the below line root@Tower:~# rm -rf "/mnt/user/appdata/Plex-Media-Server" and got this response rm: cannot remove '/mnt/user/appdata/Plex-Media-Server/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Crash Reports': Input/output error

I am fine with starting fresh as long as I dont lose my media, but I am not sure how to do that. What is the easiest way to "Start fresh"

I can still run plex from my desktop and everything is fine. When I start plex in the from unraid I get connection error on WebUI from docker. I went through a bunch of topics here and several hours using chat gpt. I went through setting environmental variables and it suggested a file Preferences.xml could be corrupt but I was unable to resolve the issue. When I go to the logs on the plex container I get the below message repeated over and over. and eventually it starts repeating Starting Plex Media Server. Stopping Plex Media Server. Starting Plex Media Server. Stopping Plex Media Server. Starting Plex Media Server. kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec] libc++abi: terminating with uncaught exception of type boost::filesystem::filesystem_error: boost::filesystem::create_directories: I/O error [system:5]: "/config/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Cache", "/config/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Cache" I think I included the Diag file correctly, but please let me know if I need to do something different tower-diagnostics-20250517-1114.zip

I clicked on it and it was in the drop down I will mark your response as the solution but can you tell me if I have to do that every time?

Can I copy past what you typed or is that just an example. If it is just an example can you tell me how to find the file, or where it is supposed to be?

First, I would like to apologize for my lack of knowledge. My brother was the tech guy who helped me set up my plex and unraid, without him I am lost. I have a dedicated desktop tower with my hard drives and unraid installed. I have always used Plex media server on a separate desktop. It is my understanding that I dont need the separate desktop to run plex. It can be done through dockers. But my unraid says "Docker service failed to start" The log says Nov 10 09:35:43 Tower emhttpd: shcmd (123): /usr/local/sbin/mount_image '/mnt/cache/docker' /var/lib/docker 20 Nov 10 09:35:43 Tower root: Cannot create '/mnt/cache/docker' or is not a directory I am assuming that is the problem but I have no idea what it means or how to fix it. I did look on the forum for the same thing but did not find anything. My guess is I dont know enough to search for the right topic. I do appreciate any help. I know it is difficult to walk people like me through tech stuff but I am trying to get better. tower-diagnostics-20231110-1042.zip
